• the

• the

• the 

Always use a free tape: For each incremental backup option is cleared 

• the 

Always use a free tape: For each differential backup option is cleared. 

The example has only one difference from the previous one. That is selection of the Always use a free 
tape: For each full backup option. 

Below, the figure shows the deleted backups as actual, but demonstrates tape usage during the

the green rectangle marks an incremental backup created on Monday of the corresponding week of 
the year. 

If all the backups have to be kept during the year, the archive will require 28 tapes.
